Craft Brewery – Investment Opportunity

Short description

Opportunity to acquire a fully operational craft microbrewery located in the Transylvania region.

The production facility can be relocated if desired, for the purpose of supplying your own HoReCa locations.

Potential annual turnover exceeding 400,000 RON, with an operating profit margin of approximately 28%–32%; valid space lease agreement in place.

Products and Services

The business includes a registered brand, four craft beer varieties, modern production equipment, proprietary recipes, and distribution channels that are partially inactive on a temporary basis.

The brewery’s production capacity is approximately 85,000 liters per year.

Operations

The company’s activity had covered the entire operational chain, from craft beer production to commercialization through multiple distribution channels.

The products were marketed both through direct sales to HoReCa partners — restaurants, pubs, cafés, and other specialized venues — as well as through distribution to retail store networks and sales points, ensuring a consistent and accessible market presence.

Market and development potential

The existing distribution channels — namely HoReCa locations, retail store and supermarket networks, as well as participation in industry events and festivals — can be reactivated and further developed within a relatively short period of time, depending on the strategy and interest of a potential investor.

The business model allows both the resumption of existing commercial partnerships and the expansion of production capacity, particularly toward supplying craft beer to the investor’s own HoReCa locations.

Developing production intended for sale in proprietary venues under a “house beer” concept can generate a significant competitive advantage and enhance the image of the investor’s HoReCa units, contributing to market differentiation and strengthening brand identity.

At the same time, the indicative turnover and EBITDA levels can realistically be achieved again under current market conditions, considering the price increases seen in recent years within the craft beer and premium products segment.

Participation in industry events and festivals also represents a relevant opportunity for increasing profitability through direct-to-consumer sales at market prices and with attractive commercial margins.
